I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Amsterdam University Medical Centers, where I investigate the neurobiology of mental health, particularly Depression, Anxiety and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Using neuroimaging, genetics, biological stress- and immunometabolic markers, I look for neurobiological correlates of symptom dimensions (such as anxiety and anhedonia) and risk factors (such as trauma exposure and lifestyle) that are involved in these mental health disorders.
Through my work, I want to get a better understanding of the way mental health issues develop from a biological and psychosocial perspective, and why people differ from eachother in their vulnerability to these issues.
